The Fairest of them All

Oh look! A new servant? Good! Now go tidy up my collection of porcelain unicorns and make sure to put them back in ALPHABETICAL ORDER of their names and-- oh? You're not a servant? How dare you intrude my beautiful home! Peasants are SOOO rude! [Part of HMmasterlist]

“How about I just don’t really refer to you except saying you?” Hart replied again with a soft sigh. “Alright let’s go to your place.”

Hart wasn’t a fan of meeting people who were like her. Sometimes those who were rich wouldn’t interact kindly towards normal people, but he got used to it in the city. He played along with her, well to a degree.

[relise-the-kraken]

“Fine,” Elise huffed. “You want to be rude, I’ll let you be rude. I’m too generous to refuse peasants their natural insolence. Ohohohoho!”

As she led the farmer on their way, each step dramatically produced a stomp.

“Now hurry up! You peasants are so slow, but I can’t let this stain!”

“… You’re an interesting one….” Hart didn’t mind musing out loud. His expression was blank, almost astonishingly so. She was almost like a character in some movies.

“Alright kid let’s go clean your dress. I love far from here, but I assume your place is close?” He asked.

[relise-the-kraken]

“Well, of course I’m interesting! I’ve been featured on TV; an accomplishment I highly doubt such a dirty peasant like you could ever achieve.” Elise frowned, pushing her hair off her shoulders with the back of her knuckles.

“Yes, it’s the biggest house in town. You can’t miss it. A-And don’t call me ‘kid!’ I am ‘Miss Elise’ to you!”

“Commoners?” Hart replied. It hit him. She was one of those rich fancy people. He wanted to hit his head, as if he just realized it, but refrained from doing so as to not get any of her wrath.

“Ahhh…. And how much exactly does that dress cost?” Hart wearily asked. “I’’m just a farmer. So I can’t pay much. But I’m still sure I can get it out.”

[relise-the-kraken]

“Yes, commoners! Like you!” Elise gave him a look as if he had just asked the most ridiculous question to ever be asked. Must she explain everything?

“Well...” She pretended to count on her fingers, before throwing her arms straight down. “More than you could ever dream of affording, that’s how much! This is why you watch where you’re going! And if you can’t pay...” She hummed, “I guess you’ll have to work for it!”

“Well put baking soda on the area after you soak it, then some vinegar and baking soda, and lastly pour some boiling water on it.” Hart thought out loud. “At least that’s how I’ve done it. Works like a charm on most clothing. If you’d like I can do that for your dress.”

Hart didn’t quite recognize the woman was a bit out of his league when it came to clothing and general wealth. He was just blurting out what he’d do, not recognizing she may be a bit different in that manner.

[relise-the-kraken]

“You assume a commoner’s cleaning method is going to work on my clothes!?” Elise huffed, crossing her arms. Who did this peasant think he was?

About to just turn around and stomp away, she considered his offer. With a sigh of defeat, she realizes this unusual way of cleaning clothes might be worth a try.

“I... I guess you could try. B-But if it doesn’t work, you’re paying me! And don’t you dare tell anyone about this!”

You're the greatest! Can I be the guy who fans you with a palm leaf?

*Grimaces at the thought of some creep wanting to fan her* Ewww! Absolutely not!

[relise-the-kraken]

Where does one apply to be your servant?

You can fill out an application form attached to a letter about how I’m the most beautiful and kind young lady anyone could ever ask to work for and send it via mail. The letters are already piling up, but if you’re not too dirty of a peasant, you might have a chance! Ohohohoho~

[relise-the-kraken]

Do you like being a farmer? Or just owning a farm with workers? Do you plan to take a bigger role in the manual labor than you currently have?

I enjoy owning a farm with workers, yes, which makes me a farmer, which I also enjoy.

For your other question, *turns up her nose* I wouldn’t dream of doing any filthy work I can already pay my servants to do! It’s just a waste!

[relise-the-kraken]

Do you think people are generally good or generally bad at heart?

Of course~! If there’s one person who is a perfect example of being good at heart, it’s moi! Ohohohoho~

((Merry belated Christmas, everyone! Have a song Elise probably enjoys XD))

[relise-the-kraken]

Only two more weeks to Christmas~!

I’m sure my servants will shower me in gifts... if they want to remain employed.

[was wandering through Oak Tree Town with his fishing rod and bucket to find a good fishing spot (he hadn't been to this town before), when he sees the young lady leaving the entrance of her home] 'Scuse me, miss,do you know anywhere that's a good fishing spot?

*At first, Elise gives the bandanna wearing man a look to say ‘who are you supposed to be?’ Of course, it wouldn’t be very ladylike to refuse all requests from peasants* I’ve never been fishing before, –such a dirty activity– but I do know some of the peasants enjoy fishing by a bridge somewhere. It’s across the property of the peasant with the messy hair and the one trying much too hard to match my wardrobe.

Why do you come all the way out here for one though? Could it be where you’re from, you’re too poor even to fish? Ohohoho!

[not-a-pirate]

[The minute that Elise uses the word peasant in conversation is the exact moment he starts frowning, and he starts frowning more as she continues talking. Could anyone be more disrespectful? He can feel that his face probably reads as hostile so he tries not to frown.] … Yeah, alright, thanks.

… No, I like to travel around and see how the fishing is in other towns beside mine. Doesn’t have to do with money.

[relise-the-kraken]

*Elise turns up her nose. Was that a sincere thanks? It certainly did not sound so. Elise knows (or at least assumes) she most certainly deserves one!* What kind of gratitude is that? I just gave you directions to a fishing spot you could find your fortune to perhaps maybe... help you not be a smelly commoner?

Do peasants really do that often? And you don’t even have servants to carry your materials from place to place?

“Ahh sorry about that.” Hart replied a bit worried. The girl wore a very frilly dress, something he’d see in the city more than he would here. He thought it odd for a moment but then offered his hand to help her up.

“I’ll get you a new drink to replace that. My apologies again. It’s my first time here so I was mindlessly exploring.” Hart explained to the girl.

[relise-the-kraken]

Elise stuck her nose up. Did this boy really think her main concern was the drink?

“I can buy another drink just fine, thank you!” She huffed, crossing her arms before throwing them off her dress in disgust once her sleeves soaked the liquid. “But what’s to be done about my dress!? It’s custom made by my own personal seamstresses!”

[relise-the-kraken]

Staring at the pen of strange birds he let out a wistful sigh. They were like cluckadoodles but so very small- and Kiel immediately loved them. Basking in the abnormally warm autumn day he weighed his options- it probably wasn't appropriate to climb into the pen, this was someone's property! Just then a few babies exited the chicken coop and Kiel hopped over the fence.

“No, no. I shall be doing the shopping myself. This is what happens when one complains of my bags being ‘too heavy!’“ Elise scolded her servants from the doorway.

On her way out, she came across some oddly dressed young man on her property with her baby chicks! What if he infected them with some terrible commoner disease? Even though it was her servants taking care of them, Elise still had an image to keep up.

“What on Earth are you doing!? Shoo, you dirty peasant!”

Hart decided it was time to go around and explore some neighboring cities. He jumped onto his horse and starter riding out to a near by one called Oak Tree Town. It was surprisingly close, and Hart bet he could take pretty casual trips to and from the town. Soon he was in the town plaza, and the guild master Veronica helped him stable up his horse there for a while. She recommended visiting the forests and shops while here.

Hart decided to head for the forests a bit. He went right up from the town and into the first area of the forest where the river was. He decided to take a left to where the grains were growing, and accidentally ran into someone.

[relise-the-kraken]

Elise had traveled out of town just for a taste of the highlight of autumn: a Pumpkin Spice latte. In truth, she wasn’t all that fond of pumpkin, but something about the beverage she felt added to her appearance.

It better taste good, she thought. She had come all this way to--

Have the drink crushed and spilled all over her dress. Not only that, but some filthy, smelly boy was the cause of it!

“Augh! How dare you! Why weren’t you watching where you were going!?”
